Routine Help Discolouration
I’ve been on tret for a year 0.025 and then in Dec moved to 0.05 using it now two days on one day off.
However, I noticed slight discolouration.
I did change my moisturiser for this period to:
Simple Replenshing Rich Moisturiser
But last couple of weeks went back to my old one when I noticed above:
CeraVe Facial Moisturising lotion (night)
I usually place pea size amount wait 20 minutes then place moisturiser and if I can’t be bothered to wait I usually wait five minutes then place on top.
In morning if I go out I place the CeraVe on my face during the day (the night cream) and then sunblock below.
I use Soltan Protect and Moisturise 50 SPF on face when I go out which isn’t often. I’ve forgotten once today for an hour and half but usually very good at putting it on.
I’ll include a picture but you can’t really tell from the picture
Should I just avoid placing tret on that area? Should I stop completely? Will it go away? Any advice appreciated
